It was strange, really.Everyone in Nexuria thought Cynthia was capable of anything and was really talented. Yet, Ellora always felt the need to protect her and even claimed that she had no sense of direction. Not only that, she even claimed that she would work hard as an actress, taking in more jobs so that she could take care of Cynthia. Cynthia was sometimes curious about when she had given Ellora the impression that she was someone who needed protection.As they arrived at the private dining room, Ellora pulled her to sit down. Then, after ordering, Ellora asked Cynthia about her sudden decision to leave Jiverton."Are you and your husband planning to move to another city?"Ellora knew about Cynthia's marriage, but neither had mentioned names. Ellora did not ask, and Cynthia did not say.The two girls had many topics to discuss when they were together, mostly gossip, food, drinks, work, fashion, and makeup. However, they would rarely talk about relationships unless somethi
"In the adult world, everyone takes what they need." Ellora laughed dryly. "Let's not talk about that. Let's think about where we can go after lunch. I haven't been out in ages."Ellora did not mention that she was forced. Last night, when the man came back, he still had the smell of another woman's perfume and lipstick marks on him. Ellora had refused and resisted, but the man's strength was much greater than hers. She had to give in.Fortunately, the man had been angered by her resistance and had not gone through with it. Otherwise, she would really be afraid it would hurt her unborn child."If you need anything, just tell me. I can help you." Cynthia did not say much, but she did offer to help."As long as you're okay, I'm relieved. If you have trouble with anything after the divorce, remember to tell me. I'll work hard to support you!" Ellora said lightly, her beautiful eyes curved as she smiled."I should be the one saying that to you," Cynthia finally said."What?" Ellora
Ellora's hands and feet turned cold in an instant. She quickly withdrew her hand, and her eyes showed a moment of panic. "Pregnant? How could I possibly be pregnant?" She was surprised at Cynthia's medical knowledge. "How far along are you?" Cynthia saw through Ellora's lie.Ellora could not keep up the pretense any longer, and she lowered her head, admitting, "It's been a few months."Cynthia was skeptical. "And you're still...doing it with him?" She thought Ellora's husband was very unreliable."You can't have sex during the first three months of pregnancy," Cynthia pointed out."We didn't have sex." Ellora blushed. "When he wanted to come in, I angered him and drove him away."Cynthia felt that something was off. Even if it was a marriage of convenience and her husband had a lover, he should not joke around with Ellora and their unborn child.If Ellora could only stop him by angering him, how did he usually treat Ellora?"I suddenly remembered my agent asked me to finis
[I have a feeling that the guy in the picture was the president of the Neal Group… Can I say that?][What a good eye! That's indeed Joshua Neal, the president of the Neal Group. I look at his pictures every night before I go to sleep. Even if you put a mosaic over his eyes, I can still recognize him!][Mr. Neal got married?][Not sure. It seems like he did, but also like he didn't.][I know! It must be someone in Jayleen's circle who saw her getting close to Mr. Neal and was afraid she would be famous, so they started spreading rumors.][You can spread rumors with just a word, but it takes a lot to refute them.]The comments section was bustling.As gossip was typical these days, people were no longer willing to believe everything any accounts said. Without evidence and proof, they would not mindlessly ruin someone's name.However, they did not know that this was true—Jayleen had indeed intervened in Joshua's and Cynthia's relationship, and Joshua had indeed divorced Cynthia be
Cynthia did not speak to him and instead made a phone call in front of them, saying, "Is this the psychiatric hospital? I have a severely mentally ill patient here. Can you come over?""Cynthia!" Joshua stood up and snatched her phone, hanging up the call.This woman never failed to anger him.Cynthia said calmly, "If you're sick, you should seek treatment. Delaying it not only harms yourself but also risks harming others.""Do you think pretending to be crazy can avoid what happened today?" Joshua threw the phone aside and looked down at her."What happened?" Cynthia was not affected by his coldness."Yoel." Joshua's gaze was fixed on her. He never thought her acting skills were so good. "Show it to her."Yoel picked up the tablet, opened Twitter, and handed it over to Cynthia. He believed she was not the one who did it."Ms. Yates, please take a look.""No one except you would do something so childish. I'll make sure you pay for the suffering you caused Jayleen!" Joshu
Someone with such a messy private life would definitely come up with dirty ideas.Cynthia listened as Joshua accused her of orchestrating the trending topic about Jayleen, and she knew he had looked into her whereabouts after seeing Jayleen's name on the trending list. Without wasting any time, Cynthia responded bluntly, "It wasn't me.""Do you really expect me to believe that?" Joshua retorted.Cynthia rolled her eyes. "Joshua, when are you going to use your brain? Why would I spend money to put her on the trending list?"Joshua continued questioning her motives, "You think her appearance ruined…""What do you want me to do?" Cynthia interrupted. She could see that he was a lost cause and could not be bothered to waste any more time arguing with him. He was a complete idiot!"Apologize on Twitter," Joshua ordered, assuming that Cynthia had agreed to his terms. He was getting annoyed and angry. "Then, meet Jayleen and apologize to her until she accepts your apology."Yoel
This was the first time in a while that Cynthia had been so compliant, and Joshua could not help feeling a strange discomfort in the depths of his heart, even though it was the result he had wanted.Once Joshua had left, Yoel gathered the courage to express his thoughts, "Ms. Yates, why did you agree to apologize? Isn't that taking the blame for someone else?""Taking the blame?""Isn't it?""Yes." Cynthia forgave Yoel for what he had done before, adding, "Joshua is convinced that I did it.""Why don't you explain it to Mr. Neal again?" Yoel could not bear to see his idol take the blame. "If you explain it a few more times, Mr. Neal will definitely believe you."Cynthia's gaze fell on him. "Do you believe that?"'No.'Yoel had no doubt that Joshua was acting completely out of character.Cynthia casually pointed in a direction and said, "You can sleep in that room tonight. Handle your own change of clothes."Yoel was confused."Sleep?""Didn't Joshua tell you to keep an eye
Jimmy was relieved after hearing that Cynthia would not genuinely apologize. This was their Cynthia, and they could not stand to see her being mistreated. Cynthia sent the details to Jimmy, and Jimmy was angry to learn that Joshua was a scumbag who had asked Cynthia to help him cover up for his mistress. Jimmy was really angry!He was furious!The result of his anger was that he wrote a sincere apology letter in Cynthia's tone, although he could not help injecting some of his own emotions into it.That evening, while Cynthia and Yoel were still having dinner, Joshua called. Yoel put down his fork and spoon and answered the phone, "Yes, Mr. Neal.""Why haven't she posted the apology statement?" Joshua had already returned to Sovereign Heights and was sitting in the study on the second floor."She's still writing it," Yoel replied. "Does she need a whole afternoon to write it?" Joshua asked."The previous versions weren't good enough, so I had Ms. Yates rewrite them several
